TERRE HAUTE, Ind. -- Sprinter
Noah Malone can add another record to his young Indiana State career as his 200-meter race during the Pacesetter Invitational last May has been ratified and is now an official world record.
Â
Malone posted a time of 21.55 in the race to earn the T12 record. The T12 classification represents track athletes with a visual impairment.
Â
He is coming off the Tokyo Paralympics where he brought home three medals, including a gold medal. Malone ran the opening leg of the 4x100 relay, where his team went on to set a new world record time of 45.52.
Â
His victory as a member of the team gave him his third medal of the Paralympics after picking up silver medals in both the 100 and 400-meter dashes, both of which also came courtesy of new Americas records with times of 10.55 and 47.93, respectively.
